Whether you're starting from scratch or already have some knowledge of Italian, I'm here to support you on your language journey!

As a native Italian living in Ghent, Belgium, I have been passionate about writing in both my native language and others since childhood. A few years ago, I published a book titled Una Cena (Il Seme Bianco, 2018), and I currently have more projects in the works.

Together, we can customize your lessons to fit your specific needs and interests, whether that's grammar, conversation, or cultural insights. As someone who speaks five languages, I understand how challenging it can be to learn without a solid foundation and proper guidance. I'm here to provide just that!

I teach mathematics with passion and dedication. I not only help with working out methods, but also try to provide insight with the help of relevant examples, so that you understand what you are doing.
I walk through chapters that you do not understand, improve tests and help with your homework. Please note: I help you understand what to do, I will not do your homework myself.
Furthermore, you can usually always ask me questions. Do not hesitate!
You can come with any part of mathematics to get extra tutoring. Even though this is the full book.
For adults and seniors who want to improve or expand their basic knowledge, they can also leave something behind. We can then refine specific matters. Or go through a full book of your choice.

I'm all about making chess a fun and challenging experience.

Enjoy Korean Dramas
Korean cinema and TV culture are especially fascinating. And the quality is very high. Boong Joon Ho’s Parasite won 4 Academy Awards as proof of that. If you want to experience Korean films and Korean dramas to their full extent, speaking Korean is a must.

You’ll be able to read the subtitles and understand the characters. In fact, if you enjoy Korean entertainment, you can also substitute your language classes. Why learn Korean with boring grammar drills, when you can immerse yourself with exciting K-Dramas!?

Bye everyone!

Would you like to learn to play the violin in a fun, playful and relaxing way, at the pace that suits you best? Young, old, beginner, advanced? Welcome! You can also learn solfège during our lessons.

It is often difficult to schedule music lessons when you attend a music school. Here you can combine both violin and solfège in one lesson.

I studied at the Ghent Conservatory and took several private lessons.
I also regularly perform with my duo and play in various orchestras.

I would like to share my passion and musicality with you!

Hola!

Would you like to learn Spanish in an interactive way with a focus on speaking? Do you love Latin American culture as much as I do? Say no more!

We first look at where you are now and what you would like to achieve and I adjust my lesson based on that. Having lived in Ecuador, I know all too well how important it is to be truly immersed in a language. That's why I think practice is very important: talking about your interests! Because... one learns by doing :D

Not: pure theory and rules while sitting down
Do: theory and practice - we chat a lot and get to work with photos, music, cooking, etc...

The lessons are standard at my home in Ghent Center (negotiable in Aalter). Due to training, I will not be available one Thursday and Friday per month until January '25. The other weeks and on Saturdays.

I was born and raised in Ghent, Belgium, and spent my formative years in the UK, where I graduated in Modern Languages—Chinese and French—from The University of Westminster in London. After completing my studies, I spent two decades in Asia, primarily in Greater China. Now back "home", as a full time dad of two princesses who have Chinese heritage, communicating in various languages - sometimes in one sentence - is just part of our day.

With hands-on teaching experience in China, the UK, and Belgium, I adopt an engaging and intuitive approach to language learning. I tutor English, French, and Mandarin Chinese, applying the same creativity I used in my past career, which involved leading teams, crafting brand stories, and working across cultures.

My sessions are customised to meet each student’s specific needs and interests. They combine real-world context, clear structure, and inspiring storytelling—making them ideal for professionals, students, or anyone eager to enhance their language skills with a tutor who truly understands how communication works across different languages.

Embark on a fun and interactive Mandarin journey with a native speaker! Whether you’re a complete beginner or want to polish your pronunciation, this class is all about learning Mandarin naturally while enjoying the process.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree from Beijing Normal University, China’s No.1 institution for teacher education and Chinese language studies, and I am currently pursuing my Master’s in Chinese Studies at Ghent University. I speak Standard Mandarin with perfect and accent-free pronunciation (PSC Level 1-B), and have experience teaching international students as a teaching assistant at Ghent University.

Every class is tailored to your interests and goals. We can:
Chat about daily life, hobbies, or trending topics in China
Practice natural pronunciation and conversation skills
Explore Chinese culture, expressions, and idioms
Prepare for HSK exams if desired

I believe learning Mandarin should be fun, engaging, and stress-free. Expect lively conversations, helpful tips, and practical homework to track your progress — all in a relaxed, enjoyable environment.
Come join me for a Mandarin adventure, and let’s make learning Chinese exciting and effective!

I’m a native Italian teacher with more than 7 years of experience. My lessons take you from beginner (A1) to upper-intermediate (B2) Italian. You’ll also find lessons for Business Italian. We focus on practical language, useful grammar, and speaking skills so you can feel confident in everyday and work situations.

Besides the weekly lesson, I will send daily flashcards, small exercises, or short translations. This way, I will stay in touch every day, because I strongly believe that learning a language needs daily practice, even just for a few minutes

All the material I send between lessons is created by me and tailored to each student’s needs. The flashcards are recorded with my own voice to help students get used to the natural sound of Italian. The listening stories I share to train comprehension are also recorded with my voice.

Join me on your Italian learning journey 💛
